The hotel’s location is fantastic—just a 10-minute walk from Exit 1A of Hisayaodori Station—and it’s within easy walking distance of the Rōnen area, with Don Quijote just around the corner. Whether you're grabbing snacks, souvenirs, or just exploring the neighborhood, everything is convenient and close by.

The only minor downside is the door mechanism, which feels a bit awkward to open.
